Victoza works by helping the body make more insulin (to help lower blood sugar levels) and less glucagon (because glucagon increases blood sugar). It also delays stomach emptying. It contains the active ingredient liraglutide and is injected subcutaneously (under the skin) once a day.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Jardiance is made by the pharmaceutical company Boehringer Ingelheim Pharmaceuticals.

This study found both drugs to be similar in terms of major adverse cardiac events (known as MACE, and include heart attack, stroke, and death due to heart-related causes) as well as heart failure hospitalization and death by any cause. However, people who took Jardiance had a lower rate of first heart failure hospitalization. They were also less likely to require a type of water pill called a loop diuretic.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC9585433\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">study published in 2022<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> compared Jardiance and Victoza, as well as another drug called <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Januvia<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (sitagliptin). In this study of almost 91,000 patients with Type 2 diabetes, Jardiance was found to be more effective than Victoza and\u00a0 Januvia in reducing the risk of hospitalization for heart failure. Additionally, Jardiance lowered the risk of major heart problems compared to <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Januvia<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, with significant benefits for patients with heart and kidney diseases. These findings suggest that older adults with Type 2 diabetes might benefit more from Jardiance in reducing heart failure hospitalization and major cardiovascular events, particularly those with a history of cardiovascular disease.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Many people with Type 2 diabetes require <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/diabetesjournals.org\/care\/article\/47\/Supplement_1\/S158\/153955\/9-Pharmacologic-Approaches-to-Glycemic-Treatment\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">combination therapy<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, which means taking more than one medication. Some patients take just one medication, while others may take both Jardiance and Victoza.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Keep in mind that there are many factors to consider when determining the most appropriate treatment option for a condition. The most effective medication for a patient should only be determined by a healthcare provider who can take into account unique factors that include the patient\u2019s medical condition, history, and medications they may already be taking that could interact with Victoza or Jardiance.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"victoza-vs-jardiance-insurance-coverage-and-cost-comparison\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Victoza vs. Jardiance: Insurance coverage and cost comparison<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Victoza and Jardiance are often covered by insurance and Medicare prescription plans, but out-of-pocket costs vary by plan.
